Kinsale is a gorgeous town by the sea near Cork city and near the airport. It has great food and culture and lovely shops. There are lots of opportunities to take boat trips. The hotels are lovely and surrounding scenic places gorgeous.

Kinsale is a cute little town. Beware. Not easy to drive in.
Kinsale is a cute little town. Beware. Not easy to drive in. Good place to spend a few days.We used it as a base for going to Mizen head, Baltimore and other places south of Cork.
Also note, and this is very common in Ireland, don't get up a the crack of dawn and expect to find a place open for breakfast. A few opened at 8 but more often opened at 9 and even 10. Earlier than 9 were few and far between. Those that are tend to be crowded for obvious reasons.

It was disastrous, my wife decided to go down the town for a walk around as she was walking she noticed foreigners watching her every move and they then started to pair up and follow her, she felt so threatened that she had to go into spar shop and wait for me to collect her. Would never visit there again.

Kinsale is a fantastic town for a weekend away.
Kinsale is a fantastic town for a weekend away. There are several excellent restaurants where you will have unforgettable experiences. The Black Pig and Finns Farmcut are amazing. Breakfast can be hit or miss, The Lemon Leaf and OHK were excellent. If the weather allows the walk out to Charles Fort is lovely, with a pint of Murphy’s at the Bulmans. The views at the Old Head of Kinsale are breathtaking, and Garretstown Beach is stunning. The tour and tasting at Kinsale Mead is fascinating and a unique highlight. Be careful choosing where to stay, as standards are not reflected by star ratings, and the centre can be noisy. Parking is challenging with two hour max at the central car park, better at SuperValu but you’ll need to move your car overnight.

We arrived later in the evening but were welcomed wonderfully. If you drive to the hotel, know that parking is only what you find on the street. Our room was lovely and spacious and the bathroom was nice.
There isn't an elevator available so if you are on the 3rd floor like we were, be prepared to pull your bags up the stairs.
Be sure to book a paid breakfast with your room reservation. It was soooo good and one of the best meals we had in 2 weeks. A good breakfast gave us the energy to tackle a busy day.
Kinsale is a lovely town and even mid-week on a foggy fall day, we loved walking around.
We had a very enjoyable 1 night stay during our road trip of Ireland
The accommodation was very good. High end, comfortable and clean
Very helpful receptionist on arrival.
No parking at the hotel but the car park is about 5 minutes walk and it was free
The location is superb. Lots of lovely shops, bars and restaurants and lots of venues playing Irish music.
We loved Kinsale.
Would highly recommend the lovely walk to the fort.
Thank you
I love the coffee station and the ice maker and glasses was a real treat that some high end hotels don't even offer so this is a wonderful touch. Rooms are comfortable and exceptionally clean. I loved the balcony too which had a lovely view. Brilliantly located although parking was a slight issue, we got the last space in the free car park a minute walk from The Pier but after quite a wait but overall, a lovely spot. Anne was lovely too.
We had an excellent stay at Blind Gate House! Lily and the rest of the staff are very friendly and accommodating for their guests. Our room was quite comfortable with plenty of space. Breakfast was delicious, especially the smoked salmon.
We were only able to spend one night in Kinsale during our trip, but we’d stay at Blind Gate House again in a heartbeat!
Breakfast was the best breakfast I've had in an Irish hotel in a long time, the fruit selection was very good and I really appreciated the honeycomb. I stayed in a family room and the room was a good size, bathroom was large with a separate bath. We were given robes at the pool and were able to use the jacuzzi (not every hotel will let you during covid times)
Great space if you are travelling with kids, gives you freedom to be able to relax with it out having the kids confined to a hotel room. Location is great as you are a short walk to some of the best restaurants Kinsale has to offer.
The owner Michael was great to deal with and very helpful. My family and I will definitely be returning
Lovely welcome from all staff. Room was spotless and comfortable. Best breakfast experience. The pancakes and fried breakfast were amazing! Only stayed one night but would stay longer in the future if visiting Cork again. Two parents and two children in a family room worked well. My 7 year old said he liked our “hotel house” the best.
The design and attention to detail, as well as effort put in the little (but noticeable) amenities the owner has granted his guests, made this stay an exceptionally pleasant travel destination. Located near plenty of Kinsales best Pubs, Restaurants and leisure locations, it is the perfect get-away for a trip to Kinsale.
What a fantastic hotel. We enjoyed everything about our stay. All staff went above and beyond, The breakfast was amazing and the lunch at Sydney's was fantastic.
The rooms were spacious, spotless and comfortable with a great the shower.
Harbour view room was exactly that. Stunning.
Onsite free parking too.
Room a little tired, Black Clothing unit a little battered, carpet badly stained
Spa hotel would expect Robe and Slippers in the room for the price we paid
Food excellent, Staff Excellent, Views amazing!
Peter is a wonderful host. He carried our heavy bags up to our room. The hotel is located very conveniently in town, we could walk everywhere. Breakfast was delicious and served by a charming assistant.
Receptionist gave us a lovely welcome. Room spacious and gorgeous bed. Cookies and coffee machine in the room, a nice touch. Hotel is affilated with the Blue Haven so can access their bistro/live music.
The owner and staff were super friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and bright. I liked the character of this older hotel, and the fact that it still had all the modern amenities.
Very nice hotel, in a great location. Near to the harbor, lots of restaurants (Fishy Fishy!), shops, and a sweet bookstore that turns into a wine bar at night.
The hotel is a delightful oasis of elegance and comfort in the centre of Kinsale. modern spacious bathrooms. plush comfortable beds. The best breakfasts ever.
Asolute fantastic place. Iv stayed there once before and I think its my favourite hotel in Ireland. Everything from the view to the staff is top class.
